j.33 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 A few days ago, Chronicle posted an article about a new bike trail planned in Sharpstown. Here is the link: https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/transportation/article/sharpstown-centerpoint-trail-easement-brays-bayou-18684891.php The project will be 1.8 miles of new trail along the current center point easement. The agencies involved appear to be TIRZ 20, Southwest Management District, and Harris County Precinct 4 Commissioner Lesley Briones’ office. Proposed budget will be around $3.1 million. Proposed map showing the crossing improvements too: 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amlaham Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 So this is where the trial is supposed to be north of Sands Point (that would eventually connect the Westpark Trail). This issue is also prevalent South of Beechnut (that is supposed to connect to the bayou trail). Is this something that can be fixed? Are those companies just "borrowing" the area under CenterPoint or is it bought out? Can anyone provide any clarity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j.33 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Some good news! Houston 311 website (linked here: Home · Customer Self-Service (powerappsportals.us)) finally has a bike lane maintenance tab!!! Previously, you would have to submit to "other" or "pavement markings" (depending on the issue) and public works would transfer it to bike lane maintenance. Now, any issues with bike lanes that you see can be placed under this tab. How to reach it: Step 1 - Click on Report a Problem Step 2 - Click on "Streets - Bridges - Drainage" Step 3 - Click on "Bike Lane Maintenance" Step 4 - Select the issue with the bike lane: debris removal, bike lane pothole, damaged bike lane barrier Step 5 - fill out the address and click the link provided to submit your request 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
004n063 Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Bicyclists: Hey, so it can get pretty dangerous out there for us. Maybe you could use bollards as modal filters to help calm traffic... City of Houston: Heard ya loud and clear 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
